[ esq ]ape , “Time Of The Season”
“Time Of The Season” is an atmospheric slice of psychedelic pop from 1969 courtesy of British group The Zombies (who are still out there performing in one shape or another). You may also recall Canadian and Grammy winning R&B singer Melanie Fiona using the musical hook as the basis for her 2008 hit “Give It To Me Right”. The [esq]ape eyewear and apparel company have partnered with the L.A. music community and Lowly Palace in a cool and unique marketing approach to make songs complimentary to their brand. This rendition of “Time” latches onto the memorable, eerie vibe and manages not only to update the song but shake it up a bit with a new bassy, disco-inspired groove. Once you recognize the song, the core is exceptionally produced with well-placed effects, drops and breaks to keep the best dancers happy. The vocals are in the right element, giving major props to the original. The beginning and ending are the weakest parts of the song but once you dive into the deepest parts of the song you will be sold.
